Based on the input of a local trail expert, this isn't going to be the actual backroad but rather just some wheeling in the general area of Crown King. Same meeting time, place, etc.

Re: AZ: Crown King backside 12/18/07

Today was a great time. We ended up doing the back side to Crown King which offered us some nice scenery and roads with optional by passes.
We really had a good group of wheelers.

Cody's Lexus is just plain awesome. He really made everything look like a walk in the park.

Rex's Tacoma with the Marlin crawler was cool to see in action. Rex was able to squeeze for better lines compared to the wide FJ and was the first to offer spotting and help where needed.

Mike did the stock FJ proud. The boy can wheel and he is on stock tires!

Lance is just always fun to hang around with. A wealth of knowledge transmitted through the CB made the whole trip entertaining.

The cool thing about wheeling with different rigs is that we all see the strengths in the other platforms.

Until I load these up somewhere here are some quick snap shots of today's event.

Even though Homedad couldn't come, Fort Misery still had his ghostly presence.

Re: AZ: Crown King backside 12/18/07

Lance and I both used the shock sliders and boy did it come in handy today. We were bummed that you couldn't come out but we all understood.

I hope some one took pictures of me
